The Profant Foundation’s Fiesta Finale Gala shared the Santa Barbara many know and love — even during a time where traditions must be traded for safety. The finale, held at the historic El Paseo Restaurant, harkened back to the 1960 gala with the Profant tradition of recreating the photo. Gil Rosas, one of those pictured in the historic photograph, returned to play piano for the 2021 recreation. An iconic Santa Barbara pianist, Mr. Rosas has kept his rhythm throughout the years, earning him enthusiastic applause. The sons of the original photo’s pianist were in attendance, the Martinez Brothers. They opened and closed the night with music fit for hip-swaying and feet-stomping. Other performers include: Jessamyn Vedro, Marco Antonio Labastida, the Arthur Murray Dancers, the Santa Barbara Piano Brothers and Ricardo Chavez & Company. The Arthur Murray Dancers posed for the photograph, just like the dancers 61 years ago. Musette Profant searched for the posters in the 1960 image, purchased them and hung them on the wall. The dedication to tradition was apparent from attendees’ Sevilla dresses to the performers. “We honor what we have held that have been passed on to us and what we will pass on to others, honoring our generations. And this is rich and this is strong,” Father Larry Gosselin of the Saint Barbara Parish said to all attendees. Please see FINALE on A3

Public Works seeks City Council direction on Mission Canyon Bridge project By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Public Works Department is returning to the Santa Barbara City Council on Tuesday to provide an update on the Mission Canyon Bridge and obtain direction from officials as it juggles engineering guidance and historic significance. The project began in 2012 when the city and county started a community planning project of the Mission Canyon Corridor. Community members and officials agreed on a plan to build a pedestrian bridge and leave the current bridge as-is, but Public Works staff then learned the bridge did not meet modern standards.

The city has spent approximately $825,000 hiring the Wallace Group to study the current bridge’s abilities and options moving forward. It returned with three bridge options and three roadway options in December 2020. Because the bridge has been ruled obsolete, the city can receive federal funds through the Federal Highway Bridge Program. The city has spent approximately $825,000 hiring the Wallace Group to study the current bridge’s abilities and options moving forward. It returned with three bridge options and three roadway options in December 2020. The options favor a similar facade to the current bridge.

The options met HBP and engineering standards, but some community members and the Historic Landmarks Commission were not pleased. Public Works met with the Historic Landmarks Commission on June 9. The HLC said it would like the bridge maintained and left “as-is.” It supported a separate pedestrian bridge, the intent of the original 2012 project. Caltrans would reimburse the City for the studies if it chooses a

“no project” option. If the City Council wants to address the deficiencies of the bridge, Public Works recommends the city keep the existing earthfilled arch and construct a second arch with concrete and use existing and supplementary sandstone as a veneer. The cost of the construction is an estimated $10.8 million, with HBP grant funds covering $5.8 million of the expense. For the roadway, Public Works suggests pathways on either

TRAFFIC, CRIME AND FIRE BLOTTER

side of the road and roadway realignment, meeting current standards. The road would cost $1.2 million, and HBP would cover $700,000. Public Works’s recommended plan is estimated to cost the City $5.5 million. Also on the agenda, the City Council is holding a public hearing on the appeal of a project approval. The proposed project is a MarBorg storage facility at 2 S. Quarantina Street. Guy Dolev made the appeal with

concerns the project would violate the Coastal Act or the city’s Local Coastal Plan. The City Council will be visiting the site at 1:30 p.m. today ahead of Tuesday’s meeting. The proposed building is located near other industrial properties. No cleaning or maintenance should occur on-site. Tuesday’s meeting begins at 2 p.m. To stream online and view the full agenda, go to santabarbaraca.gov/gov/cityhall/ council/meetings/videos/default. asp.

and Ortega streets. According to police, the suspect was traveling south in the 600 block of Anacapa when he rearended a juvenile bicyclist also moving south. The teen was ejected from the bicycle, rolled under the vehicle and dragged around 20 feet. The victim sustained moderate injuries and was transported to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital. The suspect allegedly refused to stop and fled the scene. Witnesses followed the

suspect and provided a detailed description of the suspect and the vehicle to officers. Santa Barbara Police officers identified the suspect as Miguel Angel Gonzalez, 23, of Santa Barbara. Law enforcement located Mr. Gonzalez in the 900 block of East Ortega Street and found the suspect vehicle parked near East De La Guerra and Alisos Street. The truck had fresh damage to the front bumper officers identified as consistent with

rear-ending a bicycle. It was impounded. Mr. Gonzalez appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, so police conducted field sobriety tests. They determined he was under the influence of alcohol. Mr. Gonzalez is being held at the Santa Barbara County Jail with charges of hit and run with injury (felony) and driving under the influence causing injury. Bail is $100,000. — Annelise Hanshaw

SANTA BARBARA — A Santa Barbara man intentionally struck a past acquaintance with a truck Friday night before crashing through the windows of a laundromat, according to police reports. The incident occurred around 7:40 p.m. Friday in the 300 block of Meigs Road. Police, firefighters and paramedics responded to reports of a vehicle that had driven through the storefront of a laundromat. A Santa Barbara Police Department investigation alleges the suspect, 51-year-old Patrick M. Tobin, saw the victim standing in front of the laundromat. He allegedly hit the victim with a pickup truck, propelling him approximately 20 feet through the windows. The victim sustained mild to moderate injuries and was transported to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital. The report alleges Mr. Tobin backed out of the business and fled the scene. Witnesses chased the truck on foot. He parked by an adjacent restaurant and was confronted by witnesses. He allegedly drove toward one community member but hit a concrete pillar instead. The Santa Barbara City Fire Department arrived first on scene and detained the suspect until police arrived. Mr. Tobin is held in the Santa Barbara County Jail with charges of attempted murder (felony) and assault with a deadly weapon (felony). Bail is set at $500,000. His vehicle was impounded at the scene.

‘We have a spirit that is invincible’

Amanda Payatt, a finale volunteer, was one of the first to step onto the dance floor, swishing a dress she bought at the Carriage and Western Art Museum sale.

FINALE

Continued from Page A1 “This is the Fiesta finale. But this isn’t the finale,” he said. “This is the beginning.” He offered encouragement to the crowd of multi-generational Santa Barbara residents. “My brothers and sisters, you are resilient. Do not let this (pandemic, tough times) dissuade us,” he said. “Do not become disappointed or discouraged in any way because we have a spirit that is invincible.” Although his message to the crowd was heavy, he came to the gala with joy. He brought a grocery bag of cascarones, or confetti eggs, to christen the heads of his friends with confetti as he chatted throughout the night. “We are so thrilled everybody showed up for a wonderful party. And we’re hoping that next year, everything in Old Spanish Days is fully functioning, and we can all have a party and wonderful time together,” Musette Profant told the News-Press. The burden of the pandemic was not lost, as many Fiesta favorites had to wait another year. But, nonetheless, gala attendees were happy to celebrate in whatever ways they could this year. “I’m still happy we did what we could do in a safe way,” George Leis, President of Montecito Bank & Trust said. “To come here and be here is awesome.” Amanda and Richard Payatt have volunteered at the gala for years now and always enjoy the festivities. “I’m so glad we could do this because I had so much pent-up Fiesta to celebrate,” Mrs. Payatt said. Historic photographs and artwork, like the ones the Foundation loves to recreate, were auctioned off as part of the gala. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Fiesta spirit soars Old Spanish Days celebrated despite last-minute changes

KENNETH SONG / NEWS-PRESS PHOTOS

Dancers from various groups performed Wednesday night at La Fiesta Pequeña.

By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

Fiesta was seen, heard and experienced by a community that embraced it. Sure, there were some modifications. But Santa Barbara found ways to adapt. Missing were the parades and Noches de Ronda, the variety

show at the Santa Barbara County Courthouse’s Sunken Garden (along with its afternoon counterpart, Tardes de Ronda). Officially, La Fiesta Pequeña was closed to the public at large, but a large audience was able to view it from a distance. (And groups of audience members, who came with their families, friends and dogs, were easily more than

six feet from each other.) Dancers and musicians worked hard to prepare for this event, and they gave it a lot of spirit. Speaking of that, the Spirit of Fiesta, Ysabella Yturralde, and Junior Spirit, Savannah Hoover, earned audiences’ applause for their dancing and enthusiasm at La Fiesta Pequeña and other events, including those that led up to Fiesta. This year, Mercado de la Guerra was canceled. That meant, for the second year in a row, an empty De la Guerra Plaza, devoid of its traditional stage and food booths operated by nonprofits. But trumpets, strings and other instruments were played just beyond it. There was some singing too, and you could feel the spirit of Old Spanish Days. And crowds gathered at local bars and restaurants to celebrate Fiesta. Old Spanish Days drew many residents, out-of-town visitors and even someone from the Pokemon universe. None other than Pikachu was seen wearing Fiesta garb on State Street. Elsewhere, Fiesta activities include the rodeo at Earl Warren Showgrounds, the arts and crafts show on Cabrillo Boulevard, the DIGS benefit at the Santa Barbara Zoo and Sunday night’s Fiesta finale at El Paseo, which reporter and photographer Annelise Hanshaw covered on today’s front page. When in doubt, the community adapted. Sunday’s traditional Mercado at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church was replaced by the church with a vaccination clinic, but one with food. Ultimately, despite some planned alterations and lastminute changes, the Fiesta was celebrated, bringing music and dancing, as you saw in News-Press photographer Kenneth Song’s photos. La Presidenta Stephanie

Petlow, whose family joined her at Fiesta, talked to the NewsPress during a pre-Fiesta interview at the Santa Barbara Mission. She explained that it was impossible not to smile when you say a particular magical phrase connected with Old Spanish Days. The News-Press later learned that saying this particular phrase also comes with applause, as it did during La Misa del Presidente service, the Fiesta Mass Thursday at the Santa Barbara Mission. (Reporter Madison Hirneisen wrote about this in Friday’s NewsPress.) You know the phrase. Go ahead and say it. “Viva la Fiesta!” email: dmason@newspress.com

‘Star Trek’ at warp 10 Programming continues to grow on Paramount+

Trae Patton / CBS

Allison Pill and Sir Patrick Stewart star as Dr. Agnes Jurati and JeanLuc Picard on “Star Trek: Picard,” which will have its second season next year.

By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

Another golden age has started for “Star Trek.” Fans have been impressed with “Discovery,” which took “Star Trek” boldly to a place it hadn’t been before (the 32nd century), and “Picard,” which provided even more insight into the former Enterprise captain. The new shows, plus all of the previous series, are streaming (or will stream) on Paramount+. “Picard” will return for its second season next year, and fans are excited about the return of Q (John de Lancie), the powerful being who loves to tease Picard (Sir Patrick Stewart). Yes, Q is intriguing and funny and played brilliantly by Mr. de Lancie, but don’t forget this is the being who introduced the Enterprise to the Borg. His presence means trouble, and a trailer suggests Q is messing with the timeline. “Picard” has a great local connection. Chateau Picard is

actually the villa at Sunstone Winery in Santa Ynez, which magically becomes La Barre, France. Who knew Europe was so close? This season, fans can expect Jeri Ryan back as Seven of Nine, the ex-Borg who discovers something startling in the trailer. It won’t be spoiled here. Last season, “Picard” starred Alison Pill as Dr. Agnes Jurati, Isa Briones as Dahj, Evan Evagora as Elnor, Michelle Hurd as Raffi Musiker, Santiago Cabrera as Cristobal Rios and Harry Treadaway as Narek. The fascinating storyline last season involved Dahj’s discovery that she was an artificial life form based on Data (Brent Spiner). Paramount hasn’t announced the cast list for the second season. “Star Trek: Discovery” will be back for its fourth season, but the release date is uncertain.

The good news is that Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green, recently seen playing NBA star LeBron James’ wife in “Space Jam: A New Legacy”) is finally the captain of Discovery. She will lead the crew during efforts to rebuild the United Federation of Planets. Still aboard the ship are Anthony Rapp as recently promoted Cmdr.

last season’s finale. And fans are happy to hear that Grudge, Book’s really big cat, will be back. During this season, the Discovery crew will work with various planets and, according to media reports, will deal with something they can’t sit still for: a gravitational anomaly. And Dr. Culber will be working to help Gray (Ian Alexander) achieve a corporeal form. He’s the Trill who can only be seen by his lover Adria (Blu del Barrio), and he exists because of the Trill symbiont inside Adria. Fans are eagerly awaiting the new show “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds,” which is set in the era just before Capt. Kirk and company. Capt. Christopher Pike (Anson Mount) commands the USS Enterprise. Also on board are Spock (Ethan Peck) and Number One (Rebecca Rominjn). Like the original “Star Trek” series, “Strange New Worlds” reportedly will be episodic. In other words, stories will wrap up in a single episode. In theory, if you miss last week’s show, you won’t feel lost this week. But there could be some season-long arcs. “When we said we heard the fans’ outpouring of love for Pike, Number One and Spock when they boarded ‘Star Trek: Discovery,’ we meant it,” said Executive Producer Alex Kurtzman in a news release. “These iconic characters have a deep history in ‘Star Trek’ canon, yet so much of their stories have yet to be told.”

A release date hasn’t been announced. “Star Trek” also has its animated side. The second season of “Star Trek: Lower Decks,” a “Next Generation” era show about junior officers on an unimportant ship, will start Thursday. This writer has found the comedy to have some good plot twists and homages to “Star Trek,” but the loud arguments among the characters get tiresome. Maybe they and the show will mature for the second season. The “Lower Decks” voice cast consists of Tawny Newsome (Ensign Beckett Mariner), Jack Quaid as Ensign Brad Boimer, Noel Wells as Ensign D’Vana Tendi, Eugene Cordero as Ensign Samantha Rutherford, Dawn Lewis as Captain Carol Freeman, Jerry O’Connell (“Sliders”) as Cmdr. Ransom and Beckett is a great character. She’s the captain’s daughter and has leadership potential, but dislikes authority. She doesn’t like following or giving orders, and she prefers being on the lower decks. But she’s often the smartest person on whatever deck she’s standing on, even the bridge. And she’s often the one solving the crises on away missions. When a leader is needed, she steps up. Brad likes doing things by the book, but whines too much for this writer’s ears. If he and Beckett would argue less, the show would soar. According to a news release from Paramount+, “Season two

“Star Trek: Lower Decks” will start its second season Thursday.

MORE ABOUT STAR TREK TV actors Jeffrey Combs, who grew up in Lompoc, and Casey Biggs talked to the News-Press about their “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” characters and their Rat Pack concert at this week’s 55 Year Mission convention (essentially a “Star Trek” gathering) in Las Vegas. See Tuesday’s News-Press. To watch any of the “Star Trek” shows, from the 1960s to today, go to paramountplus.com, where subscriptions include programs with or, for more money, without commercials. (Commercials only appear on the newest shows such as “Discovery” and “Picard.”) will follow the adventures of our favorite Starfleet support crew in the USS Cerritos as they deal with changes in group dynamics, chasing promotions and tons of sci-fi missions.” Like “Picard,” “Lower Decks” has a local connection. On “Lower Decks,” ships are named after California cities. Hence, the main ship is the USS Cerritos. Last season featured the guest appearance of the USS Solvang. Meanwhile, the galaxy is big enough for two animated “Star Trek” series. Another one, “Prodigy,” will feature young alien outcasts who discover a starship and an emergency training hologram: Capt. Kathryn Janeway (voiced by Kate Mulgrew, of course) of the USS Voyager. It’s a Nickelodeon series that will stream, like the other “Star Trek” shows, on Paramount+. The young aliens are voiced by Rylee Alazraqui, Brett Gray, Angus Imrie, Jason Mantzoukas, Ella Purnell and Dee Bradley Baker. “Prodigy” is slated to premiere later this year as the “Star Trek” universe continues to expand.

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

MONDAY, AUGUST 9, 2021

Let’s reflect on the history of mirrors J .R. sends me a find from a shed in Victorville, a vintage concave glass parabolic mirror framed in a crude wood box at 14inch diameter. What was it used for? I’m no scientist, but research tells me that a concave mirror collects light rays after it “sees” a reflection, and the image it sends back is “virtual” or inverted (upside down). Its brother, the convex mirror, is ubiquitous. We use convex mirrors in rear view mirrors, and the image it sends takes a little getting used to, as the cars behind look smaller and farther away. If you are close to my age, you hate those bathroom mirrors that magnify one’s face. Those are convex. A simple experiment with a teaspoon will show you the difference between concave and convex reflections. The interior bowl reflects as a concave mirror, and the exterior as a convex. Thus, you’ll see a right side up image in the outer bowl, and an upside down image in the center bowl. Don’t ask me why; that’s too much math. Thus the question remains, what was the concave mirror at 14 inches used for, and why it is in a

wooden frame? The last question is easy. The concave mirror is thin at the center and wider at the edges, so the frame is a later addition for protection. The first question (what it was used for) is harder because these mirrors throughout history were used in all sorts of optics, as well as in philosophical metaphysics, and as a thing of utility and beauty as well in interior lighting. None other than Leonardo da Vinci drew plans in his “Codex Atlanticus” in 1503-1505 for machinery (called a Mirror Lapper) to make a concave mirror. He again returned to the problem in 1515, and a model of the same was made in 1957 for the Science and Technology Museum in Milan. In another application of these

concave mirrors, a fan of da Vinci in County Offaly, Ireland, in 1840 began work on the world’s largest reflecting telescope in the world in his Birr Castle, Demesne, a 400-year-old manse, where, from 1845-1915, scientists came from all over the world to discuss the “leviathan” that discovered the spiral nature of some galaxies. The Third Earl of Rosse, inventor, had a like-minded wife, Lady Mary, who was an early pioneer in the then new medium of photography, which also used concave lenses. Meanwhile, their son Charles was out back building a steam turbine. On family nights, the three (probably early nerds) worked on the Lord’s massive telescope, and they no doubt ate popcorn over a copy of da Vinci’s 1492 math studies of concave mirrors of constant and parabolic curvatures. From the insanely scientific to the mystical: The great 17thcentury alchemist Athanasius Kirchner, in his 1617 book “Ars Magna Lucis et Umbra,” illustrates in a beautiful woodcut of an alchemist at work. In that illustration, a concave mirror hermetically reflects the divine light into the eyes of the alchemist,

who then pours the light into the polis. By the 18th century, concave and convex mirrors were used for beauty and utility indoors, as they amplified candle power and showed off that you were rich enough to afford such a mirror. A series of etchings by John Gwynn (1713-1786) shows the great concave mirror installed at Vauxhall Gardens on the South Bank of the Thames, in a grand

rotunda. And of course, every early American 1950s house where I grew up partook of the “Ethan Allen Colonial Style “ of home décor, and we all had a convex mirror, usually with a fake eagle on top. The real ones can be quite valuable: I just appraised one for $20,000. Farther afield, the ancient practice of Feng Shui uses concave mirrors to receive and

consumer research and feedback from guests. Like the annual passes, the Magic Keys include discounts for food and merchandise, as well as other benefits and various surprises. People who become Magic Key holders within the first 66 days will get a special welcome package and the ability to enjoy a limited-time experience at Disneyland. Why 66?
